title: Presentation of incomplete Currarino triad in a 12-day-old patient with vomiting: a case report.
abstract: The complete Currarino triad (or syndrome) consists of anorectal anomalies, a sacral bony defect, and a presacral mass. Generally autosomal dominant in its inheritance, incomplete penetrance also characterizes this syndrome. We report the case of a 12-day-old patient with vomiting in whom a diagnosis of incomplete Currarino syndrome was made.
